Re: 88 flop an overpair
Only a maniac would cap the lone 6 in this spot.
He could have hands like A3s, 66, 77, 99, TT and its really leaning towards an overpair.
I think its slim value, but i would raise the turn for a free sd here (and fold to a 3bet). Since you have done nothing but raised he may put you on a big pair and fold 99. You just have to hope he is overplaying something (like 77).
I dont think you should forgo the flop 3-bet in this spot. You have a vulnerable hand and UTG may (at that point) be raising 45 or two diamonds, that will not follow up on the turn.
